[CI] Winter 2011 trivia season: new team

[Deborah Schlow]

As I said earlier, I would like to play this season, but haven't been
encouraged.  If there's a space for me somewhere, great, I'll play
with this league.  The Mills League is looking for players, and
there's a spot with me if Inquisition can't find one for me. But I'd
really rather play with the league I've been involved with for the
better part of twenty-five years.  If anyone needs a player, let me
know.
